Nomad

Nomad is a sandbox survival game set years after an apocalypse, on an overgrown, broken and abandoned island measuring 4 km by 4 km. You hunt, scavenge, craft and build to stay alive, while other players can be allies or threats. You can host your own server and set its admins.

Survive on the island

Find food, drink, weapons, ammunition and medical supplies, or craft what you need. Hunt animals for food and drink, or take supplies from other players. Scavenge medical items to treat broken bones and deep wounds, and seek out weapons and ammunition to hunt other players. You can play as a bandit or help others.

Vehicles can be found, refuelled and driven to travel across the island. Store them behind garage doors to protect them from raiders.

Build and power a base

Chop down trees for wood, then place a foundation and attach walls, windows, doorways and ceilings. Add and lock a door, and place a workbench to prevent other players from building in the surrounding area. Keep the workbench hidden, since other players can use it. Mine with a pickaxe to upgrade a wooden base to stone, metal or improved metal.

Generators power equipment around your base, including mining drills, electric lights, hydroponics farming stations, oil pumps and water pumps. You can also find seed packets around the island and use them to start a farm; crops need protection.

Blood Moons and quests

A Blood Moon occurs every 7 in-game days. During one, zombies have more health, appear in greater numbers and can run faster. The Reaper also appears at Safe Zones, where you can trade Lost Souls for special in-game items. Find Lost Souls by looting graves around the world.

Safe Zone quests add PvE activities, with over 30 quests that take you across the island to uncover its history and lore.

Logging off

When you disconnect, your character sleeps on the floor, so log off somewhere safe and protected.
